About the Role
Join a small, fast-growing go-to-market team at a post-seed AI SaaS company bringing modern artificial intelligence to the wholesale distribution industry — a large, traditionally underserved sector. As an early Business Development Representative, you'll own the full prospecting pipeline, help define how the company sells, and gain rare early-stage exposure to company-building and cross-functional decision-making. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role for someone who thrives in a startup environment and wants to shape something from the ground up.
What You'll Do
-
Own the prospecting pipeline end-to-end — from outreach to closing — via phone, email, and social media, engaging wholesale decision-makers directly.
-
Test and optimize both outbound and inbound lead generation strategies; iterate quickly and cut what isn't working.
-
Become the team's go-to expert on the product, the wholesale market, and customer needs — persuading rather than pitching.
-
Independently research B2B prospects and build compelling sales materials and presentations.
-
Write and refine call scripts and communication templates; share learnings through internal training sessions.
-
Work AI-native: proactively identify and adopt AI tools to move faster and experiment with new approaches.
-
Take early ownership in shaping messaging, GTM strategy, and customer-facing processes at the company level.
What We're Looking For
Required:
-
0–7 years of professional experience in B2B SaaS sales or a closely related field.
-
Comfortable with sales outreach channels — phone, email, and social media.
-
Excellent written and verbal communication skills in both German and English (bilingual fluency required).
-
Based in Berlin, Germany and fully eligible to work there without visa sponsorship.
-
Genuine motivation to build from scratch and willingness to get hands dirty in an early-stage environment.
-
Strong customer-facing skills: you enjoy talking to customers, can convince people, and follow through reliably.
-
Goal-oriented, resilient, and positive — you see challenges as opportunities.
Nice to Have:
-
Tech-savvy mindset and/or genuine interest in the industrial or wholesale distribution sector.
-
Experience using AI tools to enhance sales productivity or outreach.
-
Ability to independently create sales materials and presentations that resonate with B2B buyers.
Location & Work Arrangement
This role is on-site in Berlin, Germany. Candidates must already be fully eligible to work in Germany — visa sponsorship is not available.
Compensation & Benefits
Compensation details will be discussed during the interview process. As an early-stage hire, you can expect meaningful equity participation alongside a competitive base, and significant scope to grow with the company as it scales.
